ROCK QUICK HITS 11/3/13
11/3/2013

Blabbermouth reports BLINK-182 drummer Travis Barker dressed up as former GORGOROTH and current GOD SEED bassist King Ov Hell (real name: Tom Cato Visnes) this past Halloween. Barker's Instagram photo of his Halloween getup — complete with black metal-style makeup — can be seen here. Back in 2002, Barker revealed to Sweden's Close-Up magazine that he once turned down an opportunity to join SLAYER. "I've never revealed this before, but a few months ago, I was offered the position as the replacement for Dave Lombardo in SLAYER," he told the magazine. "It would have been fun — they're my childhood idols, but I don't know… I'm happy with what I've got going right now." Barker's lengthy resume also includes stints in TRANSPLANTS and BOX CAR RACER. In an interview with MTV conducted in October 2002, Barker expressed his appreciation for extreme metal music, stating that "I grew up on WHODINI and RUN-D.M.C. and SLAYER and KING DIAMOND and THE CLASH. We've always loved all these types of music." An article published in Teen Music listed SLAYER's "Reign In Blood" as one of Barker's top two CDs of all time, an honor it shared with THE POLICE's "Live".

Blabbermouth reports during a brand new interview with Australia's Loud magazine, MURDERDOLLS singer Wednesday 13 was asked once again if there is any chance of him regrouping anytime soon to work on a new studio album. "I haven't spoken to Joey [Jordison, MURDERDOLLS guitarist and SLIPKNOT/SCAR THE MARTYR drummer] in almost two and a half years," Wednesday 13 said. "The communication lines have been closed for quite some time and I'm not given to why or anything. But it's the same as last time, you know. We didn't talk for years and it took us eight years to get back in the studio. It's very rock and roll. It's very dysfunctional and that band has played with dysfunction from the very beginning to the last part, on all sides. So if it happens again... I didn't expect it to happen the last time I did it, so I'm just going to leave it up to fate." MURDERDOLLS issued its sophomore album, "Women And Children Last", in August 2010 via Roadrunner Records. The CD, which was recorded at a studio in Hollywood Hills, California with producer Chris "Zeuss" Harris (HATEBREED, SHADOWS FALL, 3 INCHES OF BLOOD), sold 8,600 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 43 on The Billboard 200 chart. In an interview with the Classic 21 radio station at this year's Graspop Metal Meeting, which was held June 28-30 in Dessel, Belgium, Jordison was asked if the MURDERDOLLS has officially come to an end. "Yeah. We're not doing anymore records," Joey replied. He elaborated in a separate interview with Metal Insider: "Nothing really happened [to cause the end of the MURDERDOLLS]. I really loved the last MURDERDOLLS record ['Women And Children Last']. It's just that, for me personally, I had enough of it, you know? I mean, it was fun but it's not where my heart lies in music. I lie more with drums and the more heavy and darker aspects of music. I need to push myself in different areas and I can't rely on the MURDERDOLLS to satisfy me artistically." In a May 2012 interview, Wednesday was a little bit more optimistic about MURDERDOLLS' future, saying: "I love the band. It got me where I am. The last record we put out, 'Women And Children Last', it may be my favorite record I've ever put out — just because there was so much intensity in that record and just such a good time put into it. And if the band never happens again, we never do anything again, I know we went out on a high note with that record. And we got to do as much touring as we possibly could. Unfortuantely, some stuff got cut short. But yeah, man, that was a big part of my life again, and if it happens again, it happens; and if it doesn't, it doesn't. I hate to say it's never gonna happen, and then you see another one of those 'reunion' tours. So I'll just leave it open."

Blabbermouth reports former SKID ROW singer Sebastian Bach is putting the finishing touches on his new solo album for an early 2014 release via Frontiers Records. The follow-up to 2011's "Kicking & Screaming" is once again being produced by Bob Marlette, who has previously worked with ROB ZOMBIE, BLACK SABBATH and SHINEDOWN, among others. Says Bach: "I am just resting my body and soul after singing all day every day for this past week for the new record. "Once again, producer Bob Marlette has outdone himself and this is the perfect follow-up to 'Kicking & Screaming'. I am extremely excited for you all to hear it! "I have been putting in long hours every single day making sure that it is kicking your ass in every way possible and it is sounding great! "Bach to work on Monday. The album is almost done!" Sebastian managed to involve in the writing and recording some very special friends and guest stars, including none other than Duff McKagan (VELVET REVOLVER, GUNS N' ROSES), and not one but two top-class guitar players: John 5 (MARILYN MANSON, ROB ZOMBIE) and Steve Stevens (BILLY IDOL). Rounding out the lineup on the CD are Devin Bronson (AVRIL LAVIGNE, PINK) on guitar and Bobby Jarzombek (HALFORD, RIOT, FATES WARNING) on drums. Duff and Sebastian previously collaborated on Duff's solo album "Believe In Me". Bach's recent CD/DVD package, "ABachalypse Now", was released in North America on March 26 via Frontiers Records. The "ABachalypse Now" Ultimate CD/DVD Edition includes never-before-seen footage from last year's Graspop Metal Meeting festival in Dessel, Belgium, the full never-before-seen Hellfest set from France and the fully-remixed and remastered Nokia show from Los Angeles (originally broadcast on AXS TV), as well as bonus music videos. The DVD contains a running time of nearly 160 minutes. "ABachalypse Now" was made available in two configurations: the Ultimate Ultimate CD/DVD Edition (2 CDs + DVD) and a standalone DVD.
